Contents

  • The three Ainsworths (Oliver, Anthea and Poppy) have come to spend a holiday with their Aunt Violet who has recently married and lives near Toronto. Their new Uncle is sometimes embarrassingly noisy and hearty but has planned a trip for the Ainsworths - a long motor tour through the United States to New Orleans and along the Gulf of Mexico to Florida, staying at motels. Poppy has additional excitement in the news that a kidnapper known as Egg Hoyle is on the run and expecting to see him at any moment she tests out her suspicions in an unconventional way.
